Patent CA-2840014-A1 (CA)
Inventor: O'REILLY MEAGHAN ANNE
IPC: A61N7/00
Filed: 2012-06-29
Abstract: A system and method for controlling the delivery of ultrasound energy to a subject is provided. In particular, such a system and method are capable of safely disrupting the blood-brain barrier. Ultrasound energy is delivered to produce cavitation of an ultrasound contrast agent at a selected pressure value. An acoustic signal is acquired following cavitation, from which a signal spectrum is produced. The signal spectrum is analyzed for the presence of harmonics, such as subharmonics or ultraharmonics. When subharmonics or ultraharmonics are present, the pressure value is decreased for subsequent sonications. If a previous sonication resulted in no subharmonics or ultraharmonics being generated, then the pressure value may be increased. In this manner, the blood-brain barrier can be advantageously disrupted while mitigating potentially injurious effects of the sonication.

Abstract: The invention relates to an electrically conductive metal/plastic hybrid which comprises a matrix of a polymer material, a network embedded in the matrix and made of a metal having a first melting temperature, and metal particles within the network having a second melting temperature higher than the first melting temperature. Further, the invention relates to a method of producing such a metal/plastic hybrid. Metal/plastic hybrids of the afore-mentioned type are known from the prior art, but in order to achieve high electric conductivity, contain high percentages of the higher melting metal particles, which gives them a high density and a high heat capacity. The invention provides metal/plastic hybrids with a lower density and a lower heat capacity by using aluminium as one component of the metal particles. Furthermore, a method of producing such a metal/plastic hybrid is provided.

Abstract: A method of streaming an output content stream adaptively transcoded from a corresponding input content stream includes offering, to a client device, a number of alternative versions of the output content stream, for selection by the client device, and dividing the input content stream into two or more segments. Prior to the offering step at least a first segment of the input content stream is transcoded into at least one corresponding segment of an output content stream corresponding to at least one version from the number of alternative versions offered to the client device. Upon receiving a request from the client device for a selected version of the output content stream, streaming is begun with using a first one of the at least one corresponding segments of an output content stream corresponding to at least one version from the number of alternative versions offered to the client device that had been transcoded and stored prior to offering. Transcoding parameters are extracted from the request, for controlling the transcoding of a subsequent segment of the input content stream into the version selected by the client device, and the subsequent segment transcoded into the requested version is streamed to the client.
